It was only because Guo Ziyi's Holy Clothes Sect was involved in too many affairs of the court that the head of the Ling family did not alert the enemy.
But when he thought about Song Minzhi's hypocritical acting, he became frightened.
It's because his old eyesight is so dim that he can't help his Xiao'er.
No, he had to keep his eyes open this time to test his understanding early and choose a good wife for his Jia Xiaoer.
Patriarch Ling took a deep breath to calm down, and continued to look through the portraits to start looking for family members.
…
On the other hand, Qi Yuan didn't bother to waste time after entering the capital, and took advantage of the night to use Qinggong to break into the palace.
These guards in the palace were just decorations for Qi Yuan, but after all, this was the residence of the emperor, and Qi Yuan did not force his way in because he was concerned about the imperial power and the power of heaven.
After entering the palace wall, he stood on the palace roof outside the imperial study room.
This position is neither far nor close, just on the emperor's bottom line.
The secret guards of the palace immediately discovered Qi Yuan's uninvited guest and immediately became alert.
They were all martial arts practitioners. Just by hearing the sound of breathing, the secret guards knew that the person coming was not an ordinary young man, so they became vigilant.
As the current emperor, Emperor Wei Ming frowned slightly after seeing the secret guard's gesture. The ink pen in his hand paused for a moment and then returned to normal, and he continued to correct the memorial unhurriedly.
Emperor Wei Ming was the third emperor of the Wei Dynasty. When Emperor Wei Ming succeeded to the throne, the struggle for the throne caused border turmoil.
That turmoil almost ended the Wei Dynasty's vigor. Fortunately, the monarch and his ministers worked together to defend the country, but it also suffered heavy losses.
Therefore, Emperor Wei Ming can be said to have worked hard and diligently in government affairs since he succeeded to the throne.
It was under the careful management of Emperor Wei Ming that the Wei Dynasty continued to rise.
After suffering enough losses in the fight for the throne, Emperor Wei Ming decided to settle on the crown prince a few years ago when the prince came of age.
Emperor Wei Ming was very satisfied with the prince's outstanding abilities and tried his best to train him.
After all, only Emperor Wei Ming knew the panic and shame of almost becoming a subjugated king.
The country that our ancestors conquered cannot be ruined in his hands!
The throne had been stabilized long ago, so the current situation in the Wei Dynasty was relatively stable.
After all, everyone still remembers the lesson of nearly destroying the country.
It was precisely because Emperor Wei Ming had decided on the candidate for the crown prince early that Guo Ziyi had no choice but to take the wrong approach for the sake of power.
If he had no one available in the court, he would have to find a way to recruit his own troops.
This has to be said that Guo Ziyi is a good talker. He not only coaxed Song Minzhi to bear the humiliation for him and give up the power of the Ling family, but also coaxed the daughter of the richest man in the Wei Dynasty to be desperate for him.
The money to support the Holy Cloth Sect was all "funded" by that daughter.
Not to mention that there was a prime minister's legitimate daughter who would not marry him unless he was married. The prime minister, whose daughter was a slave, was eventually tricked by his own daughter and had to recognize the emperor who was plotting to usurp the throne.
Naturally, these matters have not yet been discovered based on the investigation progress of the Ling family's servants, but it is obvious from the memory information received by Qi Yuan.
Gou Tianjun is really disgusting, and this kind of person who Qi Yuan wanted to kill just looked at him, but he made Song Minzhi love him to the ground.
tui~
Qi Yuan's sneer subsided and he held the birdcage in one hand and the things the servant was checking in the other.
If the Ling family can find out the remaining things, they have to say they can't find out, otherwise the Ling family will be involved in the court if they get involved again.
The world is free and easy, why bother with the ups and downs of officialdom.
With these clues reminding Emperor Wei Ming of what Guo Ziyi had done, I believe Emperor Wei Ming himself would be so angry that what happened next would turn him upside down.
After all, the battle for the throne taught Emperor Wei Ming too many lessons.
The imperial palace is the residence of the emperor, and Wu Yi, who could quietly walk outside the imperial study room, was not a highly skilled martial artist. Even though Emperor Wei Ming was calm on the outside, he was still scared in his heart.
Although he has begun to grow old, he still does not feel comfortable handing over this country, otherwise he will be sorry for his ancestors if the country is destroyed!
Therefore, although Emperor Wei Ming continued to review with a red pen, his speed was much slower. He was obviously distracted by listening to what was going on outside.
It's just that the secret guard has been out for a while, and Emperor Wei Ming didn't hear the sound of fighting. This is abnormal.
This made Emperor Wei Ming and other secret guards who kept the imperial study unable to help but guess the identity of the visitor.
Qi Yuan stood on the roof of the palace and looked calmly at the secret guard approaching with his sword.
The moonlight was very bright, and the moonlight fell on Qi Yuan.
Qi Yuan stood there in white clothes with bare hands. The duty of the secret guard was to deal with the threat as soon as possible.
But after seeing Qi Yuan's face clearly and knowing the identity of the visitor, the secret guard couldn't help frowning and temporarily put away his sword, maintaining a defensive posture.
"Lingxiao Sword, Master Ling should know that breaking into the palace at night is a capital crime."
The leader of the secret guards spoke coldly.
"As a commoner, this is the only way I can meet the saint." Qi Yuan's clear voice made the word "caomin" completely irrelevant to her.
The secret guard leader frowned, guessing Qi Yuan's purpose.
It is no small matter that Ling Xiao, the head of the top martial arts family, can make this trip in person.
"A small sect has recently emerged in the martial arts world called the Holy Clothes Sect. Unfortunately, the leader of the sect has committed an offense against my Ling family. What's more, I found something when I was about to take action."
As he spoke, Qi Yuan threw the baggage he was carrying towards the leader of the secret guard.
The baggage contained the suspicious things about the Holy Cloth Cult discovered by the Ling family's servants.
"Master Ling, what does this mean?" The leader of the secret guard caught the baggage and still looked at Qi Yuan warily.
"We, the Ling family, are just ordinary people in the world, and we really don't know whether to take action, so we have the courage to bring these things to the public.
Please inform the common people about the Holy Will decision as soon as possible, otherwise the common people will have to clean up the martial arts world. "
Qi Yuan was a commoner, but in the eyes of the secret guard leader, he didn't mean anything humble at all.
For the Ling family, martial arts is their pursuit, so officialdom matters are disdainful.
Although he didn't know what the Holy Cloth Sect had done, the leader of the secret guard knew from Qi Yuan's words alone that it was probably very involved.
Without waiting for the secret guard leader to speak, Qi Yuan placed the birdcage on the roof and directly used Qinggong to leave the palace.
In the blink of an eye, the leader of the secret guard saw the white figure disappearing into the night.
For Ling Xiao, it was indeed easy to come and go from this palace. Ling Xiao's martial arts were already top-notch, and now he seemed to be even more advanced.
The leader of the secret guard frowned. The person who came had a special status. He could be said to be a representative figure in the entire martial arts world.
Therefore, the leader of the secret guard did not pursue him. The monk could escape but could not escape from the temple.
Taking the birdcage and the contents of the bag, the secret guard leader returned to the imperial study.
In the imperial study room, he saw the leader of the secret guard returning with something. Emperor Wei Ming put down his ink brush and waited for the secret guard's report.
"Master, the visitor is Ling Xiao, the current head of the Ling family of the martial arts family. He is here for a sect called the Holy Clothes Sect. This is what he sent, and he said that he would let your majesty make a decision."
Emperor Wei Ming looked at the eagle in the birdcage and had an ominous premonition after listening to the secret guard's words.
